What seemed, in the run-up, to be the key to stopping Real Madrid, ended up being the punishment. Ronald Araújo ended up deranged and unable to compete with Vinicius Jr. To the point that he ended up with expulsion and a penalty.

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Night tétrica for the FC Barcelona in Riad. Performance for the forget and that leaves to the Barcelona in a very complicated situation by the context and the form in which it arrives the goleada of the Real Madrid in the final of the Supercopa of Spain. And it is that the ones of Xavi Hernández arrived extramotivados by the possibility to give turn to the irregular beginning of season that were having and give a joy with the first title of the season and have finished with a 'depression' that it can happen bill.

The Barça arrived with all the points measured. With a plan without margin of error and in which each piece knew what had to do. The 'solutions' that has gone finding the trainer egarense went to 'joint' to be able to brake the virtues of a Real Madrid that arrived like a team imparable. Ronald Araújo split like one of the most important pieces because it went to go back to play hit to the right band to brake to Vinicius Jr, but the plan did not last more than six minutes.

And it is that, after Jude Bellingham sent a pass filtered to 'Vini' in which the Barcelona defence did not know to answer, the history went to rack and ruin. And all have remained distinguished. The charrúa, that yes that it could win some duels in the area of Iñaki Crag, this time could not contain to the Brazilian attacker. And it is that the 'change' of position of the player baffled to the Barcelona defender and did not leave him follow him constantly, because it was a player much more 'floating'.

Araújo, desquiciado with Vinicius Jr

Vinicius Appeared by the band and afterwards did not take in exerting like a forward more. The 'new' system of the Madrid gives him a lot of more freedom to stroll by the area and be, of moments, imperceptible for his rivals. To this, tonight has been necessary to add him that has been especially hit in the last metres and that has known to cost of his speed. Desquició To Araújo like few, or any, players had done it. Until the point that finished expelling it of the crash.

The player of 24 years was commanded to the street by double yellow card. The first saw it in the 39', when it demolished to Vinicius Jr in the small area in the moment that had to finish in the second stick. Martínez Munuera considered that the contact was sufficient to signal the maximum penalty and finished condemning to the Barça, because to the moment of the 3-1 the Barcelona 'disappeared'. Already in the second half, Araújo went back to commit fault on the Brazilian with a hard entrance in which it arrived to destiempo and hurt him by behind. The referee did not doubt in taking out him the second card.
